THE WREN
One of the token ducks, the Wren has hope been associate with Witchcraft and Paganism, any to its outflow and further. On St. Stephen's day, 26 December, a ritual usual as 'Hunting the Wren' was enacted. The piteous Wren was wanted, killed, ornamented andn paraded close the streets to bring good venture to the people of the resolution. In some areas it was simple shy locked up for the misuse 12 days of Christmas and in others it was ornamented with flags and legitimate to fly free.
